Stepping out into the air, she took a deep breath and glanced around. She had slipped both knives in a separate pocket, and the little kitten was trotting along beside her, meowing at anything that moved. Kate kept a close eye on the school, mildly surprised at what she saw. The door's been busted open..forced entry. She stood by the door cautiously and turned her new mic on.
A 'beep' sounded in the communications sector signaling she'd turned on her mic. One of the members of H.D.C. sat down at the desk. "Copy that mic one. Standing by."
With a reassured spirit, she stepped through the door, and the scene before her unfolded like a top spun too much. Her locked was ripped apart and her things searched, the whole of S.N.A. was tied up in the middle of the hall. Her dad was back-to-back with Rick, Dael with Barron, and Blake was in between the four. "Wha-"
Blake's head shot up and he started struggling.
Several of the Razors stepped out from nearby classrooms. Kate reached up, pushing a small button on her new headpiece.
"Signum?"
Her headphone spoke into her ear. "Password?"
Another man spoke up. "Nescit inops signum! Maecenas puella tulit eam!"
"She doesn't know the password idiot! It's the girl! GET HER!" Kate ducked as a gunshot rang around the hall. She felt a heavy weight on top of her and collapsed. "Red!" She said into her mic before it snapped.
The girl jumped up and grabbed her bag. She motioned to T and one other, all who grabbed their own bags. They did this so quietly none of the other members saw anything wrong. She shut down the communications center and walked towards the door. As it opened, a gunshot echoed, and everyone froze.
Kate managed to slip the new knife out of her pocket. She slid it across the skin of her attacker and he screamed, jumping up.
"Ignis cultro! Ignis cultro!" He started screaming, his cut was turning black around the edges.
"F--- kn-fe" Her mic tried to translate. She backed up and was grabbed by another member. He slid a bag over her head so she couldn't see, and next she felt the hot blade against her neck. It got hotter and hotter until it burnt both her skin and whoever it was holding. Both screamed, but when Kate fell, her hand landed on the hilt of the knife, which had now returned to its warm state, not burning her hand. Fire knife..water knife..four elements..THE WAR!! Suddenly, everything her grandpa had told her made sense. She was turning to get up when something connected with the back of her neck. She screamed again, this time the bag came off her head as she recoiled, the friction on the ground pulling it. She rolled over, pointing the blade up. It connected with someone's foot and they went down. The first guy was dead, his cut had stopped bleeding, but half of his side looked burned. The man's foot that was just stabbed was laying in front of him and he was twisting in agony as it burned, still bleeding heavily. Kate stood up as quickly as she could to go for the door, but it was already blocked by three others. I should have taken a guard.. She thought to herself, backing up. She backed over the S.N.A. members and her head hit the ground. A resounding -crack- echoed in her head as she hit the ground and everything went blurry. She stumbled to her feet and her mic started blaring in her ear. Emergency signal..
At H.D.C. headquarters, the communication center beeped morse code. "S.O.S. Let's go." The girl said, snapping out of her trance. The three of them sprinted the 2 block distance to the school. They were halfway there when a helicopter fell from the sky, the pilots dead, a razor ,killed from the crash, hanging out of the side, his foot twisted in a rope where he had tried to jump, but got stuck.
